Comment 14 for bug 1953572

Hi Jorge,

Thanks for your work on the analysis and SRU bug template!

I checked this per your request, and we talked about it today.
So, just some notes for documentation purposes and next steps.

The proposed changed to `--with-cgiurl=` just works around the
issue, that is the links are broken due to hard-coded relative
paths, when accessed from different paths, as you mentioned in
'Other Info'.

Other than that, this might be problematic in stable releases,
as users may use the existing URLs in bookmarks and automation
(even if unlikely), that would break if the cgi-bin URL change.

The actual solution to the problem (and the minimal chage from
an SRU perspective) is identifying how to write the links that
always land in the HTML root.

Fortunately, this seems to be simple: change to absolute paths.

I have tested that on our Oracular package and Upstream, which
seems to work, and submitted a PR upstream. If that is approved,
we can go with that, instead:

Let's see how it goes. Marking bug tasks as 'Incomplete' for now.
